Default Create date directory

I need to get a text file listing of file names and creation dates for a
folder.

Basically, I want to be able to do something like DIR X.TXT but have the
dates be the creation dates rather than the modified dates.

I find that I can open the folder and, after selecting Views - Details, I
can then select Views - Choose Columns and get what I want, but I can't
find any way, from there, to get a text file of the resultant listing. I
thought I remembered a way to print these things (other than by graphics
capture and printing that), but after looking around, I'm guessing it wasn't
Windows I'm remembering it from.

Any ideas?

- Bill

Easy with freeware (personal use) file manager called TrackerV3 (now up to
version 4). View -Show Columns. Select files or folders you require, right
click, Info to Clipboard -Selected Rows. Paste from clipboard into your
favourite text program.

www.trackerv3.com

A very versatile, multi-tabbed file manager. I have been using it for a
couple of years and still find treasures.

I'd hoped I'd overlooked a way to do it with standard utilities.

But this looks like it'll do the job.

Thanks.
